My vision suddenly became white. In front of me was the memory card, taunting me to grab it.
When I did, I felt myself lose control of myself.
The only thing I could do was watch. I didn't scream... I didn't panic... as I saw my flesh peeling off and floating away as it disintegrated into the space. The process was slow as it moved up to my arms to my chest. My other limbs followed too in the process as their cuticles detach.
I think I had hold my breath unconsciously as I saw what was underneath all those peeled off skin... The bouncing light made me squint but as bewildered as I can be, I can't think anything of it. The shiny new metal, gears, joints and wires were now in the place where my body was. Lustrous and new but alien...
I stared at it blankly with my both my eyes. One them had already change judging from the feeling of cold steel I was feeling over them. "I deem it that transforming me to one of them is necessary, yes?" I heard my voice spoke in my head. I don't recall anything like that. Then different sensations I was flooding in me… My purpose… The task…What are those?
"I'll do my best! I bow to Your name that I would fulfill this…" My voice echoed again with great determination and excitement. That isn't me! I can't even remember myself say those! I clutched my head. I tried to swallow but I couldn't. I felt the smooth metal, saw my reflection from my hand... What am I?
Before I knew it, I was taken away from that void and onto the road that I was supposed to go... The road He had made me go. I hesitated at first. I think I like it better at the void. In that place, I know that I am alone... no one would hurt me... there was nothing there other than me... no new things... no uncertainty...
I look back at that dark place then to the front... Something was making me move forward... Like this was the right thing... My body moved onwards but my mind was left behind.
I was leaving everything behind. The glowing light was now a speck, a lone star in the vast darkness. Something was ripping in me as I saw it fade. I don't care now... I started to march forward on my own accord. I don't know where I'll be heading but I think that He who was watching me was guiding me on the path even if I can't see him.
I smiled, frankly, I should feel the latter but I wasn't. I wasn't alone here. Someone was assuring me that I wouldn't be regretting anything... I didn't hesitate… I let everything come and go... I don't even know why am I this willing... all I know is that in my chest and life, everything would be changing...
To what though?
